Melting Pot
So the Melting Pot experience was amazing. I went over there last night and had the best night I’ve had in ages. One of the best things about it is the music. They all do a wee bit of DJing each and play their own personal tastes, this gives the night a good mix of styles. Mod music (old 60’s) was plentiful. They even played a little Jam and The Who. They did some ska and it was the right stuff, older stuff and really good.
They had a soul set too and I’m told they will be having a guest DJ next month, a young guy who’s dad DJ’s in a soul club. I’m looking forward to hearing his stuff as he looked pretty cool. The dance floor was full all night and the people are there for the fun of it. I don’t think there was a single person there who didn’t have a great night. I was well in my element. The best thing about Melting Pot, though, has to be the people. By the time I left there at the end of the night (yes, they had to kick us out, lol) I had spoken to just about everyone in that room.
